Cutting Milling Cutter Abraboro Typ B 12.0 x 70/25 TCT for Metal

Abraboro Cutting Milling Cutter Typ B 12.0 x 70/25 TCT for Metal is a solid cylindrical milling cutter with tungsten carbide tipped (TCT) cutting edges designed for metalworking. The tool has a 12.0 mm diameter, a 70 mm overall length and a 25 mm effective cutting length, making it suitable for profiling, slotting and surface machining in vertical and horizontal milling machines as well as CNC centres. The cylindrical (walec) shape provides stable cutting geometry for straight-sided grooves and contour work on a variety of ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

Advantages

The TCT cutting tips offer increased wear resistance and maintain sharpness under higher cutting speeds compared with standard high-speed steel tools. The solid-body construction ensures rigidity and reduced vibration during machining, improving surface finish and dimensional accuracy. The compact 12 mm diameter allows access to narrow features and tight pockets while the 25 mm cutting length gives sufficient engagement for common profiling and slotting tasks.

Suitable for

• Profiling and contour milling of metal components
• Slotting and keyway cutting in ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• General surface machining and finishing passes
• CNC milling and manual milling machine operations

Key specifications

• Shape: cylindrical (walec)
• Diameter: 12.0 mm
• Overall length: 70 mm
• Cutting length: 25 mm
• Cutting material: tungsten carbide tipped (TCT)
• Application: metal machining (ferrous and non-ferrous)

How to use

Secure the cutter in the appropriate collet or tool holder ensuring correct runout and clamping depth. Select cutting parameters (spindle speed, feed rate, depth of cut) suitable for the workpiece material and machine rigidity; refer to tool manufacturer recommendations or standard machining tables for TCT end mills. Use steady, controlled feeds to avoid chatter and maintain cooling or lubrication as required for the material being machined. Inspect the cutter edge regularly and replace when wear affects surface finish or dimensional accuracy.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate coolant or cutting fluid when machining steels to extend tool life. For aluminum and other soft non-ferrous alloys, reduce cutting speeds slightly and ensure chip evacuation to prevent built-up edge. Verify holder runout below recommended limits to preserve TCT tip integrity and achieve consistent machining results.
